Vicodine Addiction?

[pentatonic]

Chills but sweating, hot flashes, anxiety, extreme aches, can't sit still but don't feel like moving, cold/flu symptoms, the runs, stomach cramps from hell, and the worst, DEPRESSION. If you think your addicted to Vicoden, stop for a day, you'll know if your addicted or not. Doubt you are with 1 per day unless it's more a mental thing.

my friend was on about 15-20 a day for close to a month. It really sucked. spent alot of money. When he stopped. he was a fuckign madman for about a week. Cranky really irritable like flipping out over nothing. It went away. he didnt really have a problem sleeping as he was tired all the time neway from being without them. But only one a day. I think ull be fine

You post about this every few months. I even think a couple of months back it was for a friend. I call bs on one tab a day. Unless it was really OC 80 we are talking here, one vic 5, 7.5 or 10mg tab a day isn't going to do jack for you after one year of every day. You would be able to stop at this very moment, because that tiny one tab dose would have stopped working for you after about one week. If you have a serious pill problem and from the nonstop posting about pain killers and addiction over the past 4 or 5 months, then you need to get honest with yourself. Only then will you be able to face your demons and overcome them. It will be hell and you will want to jump back on, but if you are strong and stay strong, you can overcome. I wish you the best of luck and hope you are able to kick it.

Can anyone post any feedback on vicodine withdrawl and symptoms? I used a tab (NEVER MORE) for over a year and am wondering if I quit cold turkey about 2 months ago, if the feelings I get are from w/d or something else. I have used 1 or two on the weekends only since then as the pain worsens, so maybe it's not totally cleared?? ANyone have any thoughts, would LOVE to hear.....

it is very possible that you go through with drawal symptoms, perhaps get help from physician for this?

If addicted to Vic's or any other opiates go to a Doc who can prescribe Suboxone.

bro are you bein honest about how much youre taking? you can be honest with us on this board man. everyone is here to help. vicodin or any pain killer is something that you wont feel the effects eventually and you need to up it. its hard to believe that youve been on one pill for a year.

There was a segment on painkiller addiction with Pro Athletes on Real Sports(HBO). the athlete Ulter is referring to was Christian Peter who played for the NY Giants. He said he was taking up to 60 a day. I have been off and on pain meds since 94 for 7 Ortho Surgerys. I had my neck fused in 2003 and was taking 6 Hydrocodones a day for maybe a week. I did not like the lethargic feeling and of course the Fucking constipation, so I could never imagine taking 60 in a week esp. 60 a day. I still take at least 3-5 a week for the pain associated with my surgerys.
